Tales of Berseria
The Tales series is one of the longest-running JRPG series around, with countless entries on nearly every system from the SNES to the PS4. The latest mainline entry, Tales of Berseria, brings about a shift for the franchise, however, with its darkest and most mature story yet. In our review, we found the darker take on Tales incredibly refreshing, and Berseria still does what the series does best by turning JRPG tropes on their head.
Berseria has one of the best ensemble casts of the series, and the combat system is definitely in the upper tier of Tales combat. Despite some small issues, Berseria is easily one of the best entries in the Tales series in years, and because of story links it even manages to retroactively make the last game, Tales of Zestiria, even better. As you’ll see later on, its one in a long line of JRPGs that would clear one million sales.
